Possibly Sheffield’s best city centre bar right now. A superb, varied range of craft beers, as well as a first class selection of ciders and wines. The staff are consistently enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The music - vinyl only of course - is always cool and the atmosphere overall is inclusive and welcoming. A must find for visiting craft beer fans.
This is a really nice bar in orchard square in Sheffield. Serving independent craft beers, ciders and wines which are nicely priced also! Really comfortable environment to sit have a catch up with friends and watch the world go by! This is a highly recommended one to visit!!
What a well deserved entry in the Good Beer Guide. Predominantly craft but the light and a dark cask ale are well chosen and are superb. Special mention to the bar staff who are so friendly and share a passion for good beer. Definitely worth a visit.
Great selection of beers and a cool spot to meet with friends/family. I walked in knowing very little about sour beers, but left knowing a fair bit more. Nathan, who works there, gave me a lot of his time explaining about the beers, let me try some and then brought out a few recommendations based on my taste. Credit to the store. It's rare to walk into a place and get a level of service he provided, for no benefit to himself. He has completely put the spot on the map for me, being new to the area. Well done!
Don't know from where to start about this place. Such a nice ambience, quick service, good & attentive staff. Very convenient location. The variety of craft beer is amazing specially I like sour beer. Fridges full of cans and bottles. Reasonable prices. They serve wine as well. Simple seating area inside and plenty outdoor at front. Clean toilets. Defo this place will be my permanent destination for drinks in Sheffield.
